Understanding Conditional Statements in Programming

What is the purpose of using an 'else if' statement in programming?

• To execute a block of code when all previous conditions are true

• To check an additional condition if the previous 'if' statement is false

• To terminate a loop or function

• To repeat a block of code multiple times

In the context of the movie rating example, what age allows a user to see an R-rated movie alone?

• 13 or older

• 17 or older

• 15 or older

• Any age with parental guidance

Why is the order of conditions important in a sequence of 'else if' statements?

• Because the computer ignores the order of conditions

• Because the computer executes the conditions from bottom to top

• Because the computer executes the conditions from top to bottom

• Because the computer executes the conditions randomly

What happens if the conditions in a sequence of 'else if' statements are not ordered correctly?

• The program may produce unintended results

• The program will not compile

• The program will ignore all conditions

• The program will run faster

In the example provided, what mistake would cause adults to be incorrectly categorized as only able to see PG-13 movies?

• Checking if the user is 17 or older first

• Using a 'while' loop instead of 'if' statements

• Checking if the user is 13 or older first

• Not including an 'else' statement
